Chapter 1035 -1039: Loulan!
“I’ve been thinking a lot these days; if I don’t act, the seal within my divine sense will shatter over time, and then my divine sense will be obliterated, which is more terrifying than death.”
Xia Liu has his reasons.
Back when it was initially sealed, he had no idea what he might do while asleep.
Once his body was controlled by the demon thought, that would be a true disaster.
If it weren’t for the old man inserting those two spirit stabilizing needles into him.
Perhaps his divine sense would have already vanished.
In such a scenario, he might have died at the old man’s hand.
It was precisely because of this understanding that Xia Liu dared not slacken even a bit.
Dared not stop moving forward.
He had to keep walking, keep stimulating, keep elevating to completely annihilate the demon madness.
This time, he must go.
If he retreated, the future might hold even more fear.
This time, there’s merely a chance of fatal danger, not a certainty.
Given that, why not give it a try?
He didn’t believe his luck was so bad that death was inevitable.
“If that’s how you see it, then I have nothing to counter.”
Ye Wuya didn’t know what terrifying thing was sealed within Xia Liu.
But he understood one thing.
A cultivator at the fifteenth level of Qi cultivation succumbing to evil, unable to control his own body, was a terrifying presence to the world.
Just like Xia Liu described, perhaps he should try.
If there was spiritual medicine that could heal his divine sense there, it would be an opportunity.
Ye Wuya believed Xia Liu’s opportunities wouldn’t be bad.
Otherwise, he couldn’t have possibly advanced to the fifteenth level of Qi cultivation in just a few years.
“Please, Senior Ye, allow me this.”
Xia Liu secretly rejoiced; with that response, Ye Wuya might reveal the truth to him.
“Alas, what a sin, what a sin…”
Ye Wuya couldn’t help but sigh.
Even with strenuous excuses, he still had to tell him.
After a long silence, Ye Wuya slowly said, “Have you heard about the Loulan Ancient Country?”
“Hmm? The mysterious ruins near Bro Lake?”
Xia Liu had read some records about Loulan in books.
However, he had never actually been there.
His knowledge was limited to the written descriptions.
Hundreds of years ago, people discovered a trade route to break the current situation.
The Loulan Ancient Country was discovered at that time.
But the city only existed for a few hundred years before mysteriously disappearing overnight.
No one knew what happened.
Countless speculations circulated.
Some said immortals descended, captivated by Loulan’s prosperity and vivid beauty, taking the city to the heavens.
Others claimed the people of Loulan disturbed ghosts and gods, who cursed them to die overnight and caused the city to collapse, leaving only desolation and mystery.
“Yes, the location is indeed that, but I’m not referring to the Loulan ruins, but Loulan itself.”
Ye Wuya nodded; the Loulan Ruins and Loulan were two distinct concepts.
“Oh? How so?”
Xia Liu had very limited knowledge of Loulan, though it was a place full of mysterious legends.
It surely had unexpected aspects.
“Loulan, a buried or perhaps, an existing underground ancient city.”
“An ancient city underground?”
“Yes, some thousand years ago, after the decline of the Cultivator Era, the remaining cultivators gathered in the Loulan Ancient Country, only for a storm with toxins to obliterate them one gloomy afternoon.”
Xia Liu’s face suddenly changed: “There’s actually such a thing!”
“I’m not certain about the specifics; it might be man-made or heavenly punishment. The existence of cultivators made the world undergo several changes; perhaps Heaven didn’t want cultivators to exist…”
Ye Wuya had reviewed many scrolls recording cultivator deeds.
Some clues allowed a deduction that there had been cultivators across the world.
What a terrifying thing that was.
Not to mention those super cultivators.
The Earth couldn’t bear it.
Even now at the thirteenth level of Qi cultivation, possessing only this cultivation, he could imagine the terrifying power of Foundation Establishment Stage and above cultivators.
If they reached the peak, how could the Earth bear it?
“Ultimately Loulan was submerged by the desert, sinking underground?”
Xia Liu didn’t concern himself much with the excess of cultivators, only wanting to live well in the present.
“No.”
Ye Wuya shook his head: “Because of the storm, Loulan turned into a Demon City; countless demon creatures bred and grew. Once touched by cultivators, it wouldn’t take long for them to die.”
“What’s more bizarre is that those demon creatures had no reaction to martial artists without spiritual energy.”
Thinking of this, Ye Wuya felt a shiver of fear.
It seemed like the storm specifically targeted cultivators for extermination.
If this was man-made, the enemy’s cultivation might be unimaginably high.
“The storm not only brought demon creatures but also spirit grass and spiritual medicine directly effective for cultivators. Plus, the Loulan Ancient Country was originally a residence of cultivators; those deceased cultivators might have left many items. Hence, Loulan became the deadliest and most alluring existence within the realm.”
That place provided many opportunities for cultivators.
Years ago, Ye Wuya, once arrogant and untamed, ventured there, luckily entering the underground Loulan.
He emerged deeply fearful of Loulan.
No one knows what happened within.
Perhaps he didn’t dare recall.
“It holds both treasures and crises.”
Xia Liu immediately concluded.
The city might indeed have appeared to eradicate cultivators.
Given demon creatures and the presence of spiritual medicine, plus the items left by deceased cultivators, how many cultivators could resist such temptation?
“That place is referred to as the Cultivator’s Tomb; the number of dead cultivators is uncountable, yet many cultivators and martial artists still go searching for treasures.”
“Martial artists entering aren’t infected or killed by demon creatures; don’t they have a bigger chance to get treasures?”
Loulan being a tomb for cultivators, doesn’t it mean it’s a paradise for martial artists?
That’s Xia Liu’s thinking, waiting for Ye Wuya’s reply.
“No, it’s also a tomb for martial artists. Loulan not only has demon plants but also numerous exotic beasts that martial artists can’t match; inner strength won’t kill them. Once targeted by exotic beasts, martial artists will die for sure.”
Exotic beasts!
Inner strength is ineffective!
This reminded Xia Liu of when he entered the Lingyun Secret Realm.
Encountering a group of exotic rats whose inner strength couldn’t kill them.
But spiritual energy could easily obliterate them.
It seems these places must only be ventured by cultivators.
“After hearing this, do you feel frightened?”
Ye Wuya gazed at Xia Liu, wanting to know the truth from him.
